The RS232/485 – Ethernet TCP/IP – converter is designed for the connection of digital LumaSense Pyrometers to the Ethernet network.

Devices equipped with RS232 (max 1 device) and RS485 (1 … 32 devices) UPP interfaces can be connected to the converter. The pyrometers can be read and parameters can be passed to them via the Ethernet. The converter operates as master on the RS485 bus and as server on the Ethernet network. The data is transferred between the pyrometer and the converter via an RS485 or RS232 interface. The data from the converter to the control system is transferred using the Ethernet protocol. It is possible to connect up to 32 pyrometers with RS485 UPP Interface to one converter. The device features 1 Ethernet port. The data is exchanged via a Dual-RAM memory.

The length of the cable between the pyrometer and the converter should not exceed 20 m when a device with an RS232 interface is used.
